I calm down
I calm down when see sea waves
Something from within urges and dares
“I must rise and fall” along with time
Calmness in mind is must sometimes
May be sea has vast belt below
That may not give you access or allow
So much treasure is beyond reach and hidden
No one can judge or think of it even
You can't reach eyes up to its far end
Gigantic show appears to us as friend
I admire its coolness with respect
So much impressive to inspire for the act
I sit on the beach with wide and open eyes
It reminds me of failure with consistent try
Waves rise in mind but subside next moment
I try to find reason but fail to comment
Yes, life is at cross road too
Not at each angle you can be called honest and true
It has its own course to unsettle
You got to swim across with troubles
I am not dejected or discouraged
Rather well prepared to face and manage
Many of us may find whole of their life as utter failure
But something can be spoken with confidence for sure
Not all fishes survive in the ocean
Someone may grab and swallow often
This is nature and goes on with ups and down
Let us think seriously and positively own
I have lot more to perform yet
It is not in my hand but can be termed not as late
Luck can not be aligned with fate
Some of the terms really offend and irritate
